local font find #21

My daughter was invited to a birthday party the other day. It landed us at a local landmark in Tioga, Pa. The rollerskating rink. I am not sure of the year it was built, but the interior has changed little since its construction. I am not going into the details of the gentlemen in charge of the place or the enormous list of rules that pepper the walls of the rink, but I will simply say that my daughter and her friends loved the experience and we all had a blast. My wife used the restroom and told me I should check out the sign on the ladies room door. She knows how much I like lettering and is always on the lookout for some classy stuff. She was right. The ladies room had a vintage cast metal sign on the door that was straight out of the 50's/60's. Pack up the family and visit this landmark. The experience is one you won't forget! And the bathroom sign is mighty cool as well.

I am a father, husband, art teacher, graphic designer and chronic doodler. This blog is to let family see what I am up to (and anyone else who might be interested). The name Angry Strongo was invented by my 4.5 (now 10) yr old son. I was looking for an outlet to push myself creatively on a daily basis. My sons catchy name lit the fire. I created the Angry character as an overqualified, night shift stock person at a major grocery store chain. He lacks patience and coping skills. He battles with anger management issues and can find fault with most of what life throws his way. Have a great day...and drive safely.
